Faye : Maximum Trust - Earn Maximum trust with Faye

This should be a fairly easy one to get as there is a large portion of the game you are forced to be with her. Make sure you talk to her often and agree with her. Don't flirt with other female characters. Get high scoring kills while she is around and don't shoot her (friendly fire).

As mentioned in a previous solution the sewer area where you face the monkey like robots is a great area for building trust. When you enter the sewers make sure you DO NOT choose people you want to build trust with as party members as you go back to save the two you do not choose as party members, and this is when you get the monkey-like robots infinite spawning.

From the chapter select this is area 2-5.

Also the secret nano machine you can find just before you speak to Mifune makes it easier to gain trust. This is found by speaking the the kid with the number 18 jersey just before Yuki takes you to see Mifune.

Note you want to concentrate on building Fayes trust early on so that you activate the love scene with her.

You want to have Faye in your party from the moment she becomes available until she leaves. Make sure to pick up the trust booster nanos from the guy in Shibuya in chapter 2-3. When you have to choose between her and Cain, and you also trying to max out Cain, choose him over Faye.

You will have a few dialog choices where you can boost her trust in you. Just agreeing with her will cost you trust half the time. Give her the answer you think she's looking for. However, this is in not sufficient to get her trust maxed. You'll need to impress her and your comrades in combat.

The easiest way to boost your group's trust is with chain kills, headshots, and one-shot kills. The RAOW-S7 and Yamato-51 shotguns make it very easy to get all three. Whenever you can get the shotgun, grab it and keep it as long as you can. You should only ever switch it out for the sniper rifle. Once you're done with it, go and swap back to the shotgun.

When you come across a group of enemies at close-to-medium range, switch to it and charge up to them when you have an opening. Aim just below the head, and fire at point-blank. This is usually enough to get both a headshot and one-shot kill on anything other than the Golems (black shotgun-users) and security shield-using Jarheads. Your team will quickly gush over your rapid kill streak. Make sure you have medkits with you when doing this, as you will get downed a few times. You don't want to rely on them to rush out into a firefight to help you.

Other trust-related events:
When you are told to follow your team to the truck in 4-4, go immediately. Staying behind will steadily decay your trust. It's not worth it, tempting as the credit payout would be.

In chapter 4-5, if you can finish the howitzer battle with more than 25% integrity, you'll get a trust boost for your team. Make sure to keep spinning around looking for Hercs. Take them out first, then scan for other targets. Keep shooting the Grand Lancer in the head over and over, taking time to aim each shot.

In chapter 5-1, take out the first group of Shinobis as fast as possible. They can flash step around your bullets, but they cannot dodge your Shock Burst. Down them with the Shock Burst, then lay into their legs with your assault rifle or the shotgun. If you take out all three fast enough (before Shindo makes his suggestion), you'll get another trust boost for everyone.

Going crazy with the shotgun got my trust with Faye maxed in the middle of chapter 5-2 on No Mercy difficulty. Cain's trust got maxed a few minutes later.

Keep in mind you will likely not be able to get everyone's trust maxed in one playthrough. I got Big Bo and Rachel maxed in the first on Survivor, and Faye, Cain, Shindo, and Charlie (in that order) in the second on No Mercy.
